Aw, thankyou so much! I'm so so lucky to have her, she's amazing haha. Considering how much scope she has, her nature is impressive. If anything, I just worry that I'm not good enough to get the best out of her, because in the right hands she could go so far! We didn't get on at first, she tested me a lot, resisted me, but over time I think our bond has grown and probably how tolerant she is of me haha!

I wish I'd been riding for 12 years lol, I think it's about 8 but I'm a pretty slow learner. I really would love to show her, dressage or jumping, she's certainly got the scope to excel in both! Only issue is that she's not mine and I don't know if the owner has enough time to be able to take me there.

I posted on your thread about the riding critique and I just wanted to say that you are extremely lucky to be able to ride such a wonderful mare! Shes stunning and has such beautiful movement! She reminds me a lot of my mare with your description of how kind, gentle, tolerant etc she is! Ive learned a lot from my mare as well and ive been riding for 12years! Good luck with her and hopefully you did get to show her, she seems great!
